Danfoss 060G1371 Transmetteur de pression industriel

Product Overview

The 060G1371 (060G1371) is a high-precision pressure transmitter engineered for demanding industrial automation environments. Designed to provide reliable feedback in heavy-duty applications—including hydraulic systems, cooling loops, and water distribution networks—this instrument converts process pressure into a stable 4-20 mA analog signal. By offering consistent monitoring for central PLCs and Distributed Control Systems (DCS), the 060G1371 enables real-time optimization of pump performance and valve operation, significantly reducing the risk of fluid hammer, cavitation, and unexpected plant downtime.

Technical Configuration

The hardware features a piezoresistive sensing element housed within a durable, acid-resistant body. To ensure operational stability, the electronics are factory-calibrated with a fixed configuration, isolating the signal from drift caused by mechanical resonance or vibration. The module includes integrated signal clipping diagnostics, bounding the output between 3.6 mA and 22.4 mA; this allows control systems to instantly differentiate between valid process fluctuations and wiring faults or circuit shorts. The entire assembly is protected by an IP65-rated enclosure, which shields internal circuitry from splashing water, ambient humidity, and airborne contaminants.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

How do the clipping levels assist with system diagnostics?

The transmitter restricts output to a 4-20 mA band. Values shifting to 3.6 mA or 22.4 mA indicate a hardware or wiring failure. Because these are outside the standard operating range, your controller can flag a specific sensor fault without mistaking it for a legitimate pressure change.

Does this model require field adjustment of zero or span?

No. This unit features a factory-calibrated, non-adjustable internal configuration. This design prevents signal drift caused by continuous vibration and eliminates the risk of unauthorized field modifications, ensuring long-term measurement stability.

Is the unit suitable for outdoor or humid environments?

Yes, the 060G1371 is rated IP65, providing a robust barrier against moisture, splashing water, and dust ingress. Ensure the angular connector is correctly seated and the housing screw is tightened to maintain this environmental seal.

What is the correct wiring polarity?

The transmitter utilizes a 2-pin interface: connect the positive power supply to Pin 1 and the shared negative return path to Pin 2 on the Pg 11 angular connector.

Mechanical Installation & Wiring Protocols

• Process Port Mounting: Thread the G 1/4 male fitting into a port counter-bored to EN 837 specifications. Use a calibrated torque wrench on the 27 mm hex base to achieve the required tightness. Do not apply rotational force to the upper cylindrical body during installation, as this can damage the internal seal joints.

• Acoustic and Shock Mitigation: In setups featuring fast-cycling hydraulic loops or high-frequency piston pumps, integrate an upstream dampening orifice or siphon loop. While the sensor safely accommodates 50 bar surges, continuous exposure to cavitation peaks can degrade the structural integrity of the diaphragm over time.

• Electrical Termination: Ensure the perimeter rubber seal within the angular connector sits flush inside the cap before securing the retaining screw. This is critical for preserving the IP65 environmental rating.
